1. Information We Collect
YouTube Thumbnail Downloader does not collect any personally identifiable information. We do not require you to create an account or provide any personal details to use this service.
When you use our tool, we do not log or store the YouTube URLs you enter. The video ID extraction and thumbnail URL generation happens entirely within your web browser.
2. Cookies
We do not use tracking cookies or analytics cookies. We may use essential cookies solely to ensure the website functions correctly (such as remembering your session preferences). No third-party advertising cookies are placed on your device.
3. Third-Party Services
This tool retrieves thumbnail images directly from YouTube's publicly accessible image servers (img.youtube.com). When you use our tool, your browser makes a direct request to YouTube's servers to fetch thumbnail images. YouTube's own Privacy Policy applies to those requests.
We may use services such as Google Analytics in the future to understand general site usage patterns. Any such service will be disclosed in an update to this policy.
4. Data Storage
We do not maintain a database of users, URLs, or downloaded thumbnails. No information you enter on this website is transmitted to our servers. All processing happens locally in your browser.
5. Children's Privacy
Our service is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has used our service, please note that no personal information was collected.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify users of any significant changes by updating the date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
